Jim Brown Doesn’t Want Browns to Trade Manziel

The Browns are saying nothing definitive about the future of Johnny Manziel. But the franchise’s most legendary figure continues to support its troubled quarterback. Jim Brown said Thursday he doesn’t want to see club move on from the 2014 first-round draft pick and believes he could benefit from strong guidance. “To be honest, I don’t want to see him traded or anything like that,” Brown said at the 16th annual Greater Cleveland Sports Awards. “I just never feel that’s the answer to anything. But that’s my opinion and I don’t expect you to feel that way. I like Johnny.”
